Noussair Mazraoui | Match Discussion Thread 2024/25

I do think as a club regardless of Maz's beliefs we should have made a point that we are an everybody is welcome club and is Mazraouri can't accept that then that's on him to deal with. His thoughts and beliefs shouldn't impact on the club making a stand.

I do find it harder to like him as a player knowing he clearly has homophonic tendencies. Same way we hated Suarez for being a racist.
Where does it say that he has homophobic tendencies? Not supporting something he does not believe in is not being against it. He did not make an issue about the club wearing the armbands. He did not want to wear it and it is his right not to wear it. The other players made a decision not to wear it. He did not force them or the club to do anything.

Whether he chose to force the club to or not. Our lack of support for the community is a poor slap in the face to them from the club at a time when we should be showing ourselves to be open and accepting of all.

Instead we've sided with a attitude of hate.
 
I think it's always difficult to separate player from person Maz is clearly a fantastic player who I'd want in my team but probably isn't someone I'd share a lot of views of the world with.

He isn't using his status to make things worse for LBGQT+ people but he also isn't using it to make it better for them which is what these campaigns are for.

If he'd come out in public and said I don't want to support this because I think what these people do is wrong then that's a totally different story.
 
Just saw the highlights let’s hope he doesn’t have many more days like that.

Stupid tackle for the penalty and on the third goal he got caught jogging back against a man who was sprinting forward
 
Yep, his better performances have come at right centre back under Amorim. Not sure why he’s been moved to wing back.

Think injury/suspension to Bruno and Mount has made him push Anad further forward into the front 3.

He’s got a lot of centre backs currently so probably wants to use them there.

When everyone is fit surely he becomes a squad player?
 
Had the graveyard shift at LWB it clearly isn’t for him.

Longer term think he will be used as a RCB
 
His form has dropped off since being utilised at wing back. He should be the right back where his quality on the ball would help in central areas.
 
Definitely not a wing back and form has dipped drastically since he moved away from RCB. Very good player but not where he’s been playing at the moment.

Overall I think our lack of creative wingers is hindering the team no end. At Sporting Amorim had two wing backs who were very good offensively and actually created chances.
 
Hard to judge due to the quality of the opposition.

I think he'll be used in the back 3 rather than as a wing back.

Looks like it'll be between him and Yoro for that spot
